Question

Write an equation of a line in slope-intercept form with a slope of -4 and passing through the point (0, -3)

Answer 1

Remember y = mx + b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Answer 2

Do you know what the slope is?

Answer 3

-4

Answer 4

So that means y = -4x + b. Which means all you have to do is find the y-intercept?

Answer 5

What do you know about the y-intercept?

Answer 6

-3=-4(0)+-3

Answer 7

Correct. y = -4(0) + -3
y = -3 which means b = -3

Answer 8

So then what is your equation?

Answer 9

.the equation would be -3=-4(0)+-3
